The Mac is back

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

I just realized it's been a long time since I posted under the All Things Mac category. Almost 3 years really. I had a Mac (at a really good price), I lost it, while I would love to buy a Mac Pro I can't justify the insane price (my Quicksilver in 2002 was no speed demon, but it was competitively priced at $1100, refurb.) I do wish I could have sprung for the iMac 24". The screen is so much better than the 20" but I still couldn't get over the asking price. In the end I built my own. Its been a headache, with random error messages (and missing a lot of the functionality and quietness of a Mac Pro. But it is my baby. Chosen from a list of carefully researched and selected components.

So now I'm back to buying Mac software once again. I have all my CDs from the quicksilver but the applications were compiled for Panther. Which might as well be Windows 98 in Apple years. No I'm looking at building, buying, or downloading all new ones. I've been checking the MacHeist bundles for something good. but I don't see anything useful, yet.
